New Project Folder

[willichan]

This evolved from my AU3Project utility.

This one is much more flexible ... and better coded.

When you create a project folder, you enter basic information about the project, select a template (AU3, PAS, C, PHP, ... anything you create) and a profile (information about yourself) to use in creating the project folder. The folder is then created, and variable substitution applied to populate the folder with the files needed for the project. Using this utility, I have profiles for each client I write scripts for, as well as one for scripts I write for myself.

Play around with it, and you will see how useful it can be.

Here is an extra template to use with the utility. I use it for creating online HTML books. Just unzip it into the "%ProgramFiles%\MyProjectFolder\templates" folder.

HTML-Book template

Tested on Windows 7 64bits

Install fail

Exec install.exe - OK

Got UI, keep all checked, clicked OK button - OK

Got warning to reboot my PC, clicked OK - OK

Rebooted my computer... nothing nowhere. It's not installed at all.

[shanet]

@Steevegl Did you install as an administrator?

Tested on Windows 7 64bits

Install fail

I'll have to look into Win7. I understand 'Program Files' is handled differently. I would not be surprised to know that the context menus are different as well.

I am getting a Win7 Ultimate system set up. I'll put out a new version as soon as I get it working right on that system.

[Steevegl]

Should be nice if you could give the source. It's probably not a big bug, but I can't figure out myself.

BTW, I been able to try the old version by compiling the source myself, and I have a suggestion if it doesn't include in this version:

• A way to split the source and a the build folder. I'm still surprise to not see it as a default function.

[willichan]

Should be nice if you could give the source.

No objections here. I always intended to after cleaning the code up a bit. I just haven't had the time to put on it yet.

Still needs a little more cleanup, but here it is. The installer is probably the piece that is not working with 64-bit.

This is pretty much a full rewrite. I didn't like how clunky the other one was. It was nice for what I needed when I wrote it, but it wasn't much worth trying to fix.

The templates can be pulled from the download above.

12/21/2010 - Added admin rights detection to the installer

Edited January 26, 2011 by willichan

shanet was right, the administrator right is needed. I thought I tried it, seems not.

BTW your installer not ask for administrator right and don't do error if I don't have the right

Seems you don't use AutoIt Wrapper, you could easy fix it with that

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_requestedExecutionLevel=requireAdministrator

Cheers

I have added admin rights checking to the installer above. That is one of those cleanups I never got around to.

Seems you don't use AutoIt Wrapper, you could easy fix it with that

I do use the wrapper, but I usually strip that out before posting code. I tend to avoid putting anything that affects functionality as compiler directives. Where ever possible, I try to keep that within the code.

I use the wrapper more for things like version info, custom icons, tidy, obfuscator's /striponly, etc...

nice script thanks

[willichan]

A purely aesthetic update. If run directly (from start menu) focus goes to the path field. Otherwise, focus goes to the long name field.

Added another template available for download.

HTML-Book2 semi-automates the creation of the Chapter list and links. I changed over to this template when I was making HTML versions of books downloaded from Project Gutenberg. I have created an at-home online library for my kids to have access to. I needed to not only make the texts look nicer and be easier to read, but I also needed to have them in a format that could be more easily converted to read on Palm, iPod, etc. This template has made that work much easier.

Please see the original post above for the download link.

---- Edit ----

You will also need to update to the version of this utility that was also uploaded today. It adds support for executing an external file as part of the template folder creation process.

Script is now fully Windows 7 (32bit and 64bit) compatible. See the for current code.

I still want to put the uninstaller in the add/remove programs screen, but I am being kind of lazy lately.

This version moves templates and profiles to a new location to accomodate the Windows 7 model.

Templates are in @AppDataCommonDir & "MyProjectFoldertemplates"

Profiles are in @AppDataCommonDir & "MyProjectFolderprofiles"

I recommend backing up your template and profile folders, and uninstalling the old version before installing this one, then restore your folders to the new locations.

You do not have to, but the files in the old location will not be used, and will just consume disk space. Once you install the newer version, uninstall will no longer clean-up the old location.
